The life of Mysticism is one of devotion and reverence
to God and therefore to all. It is a discipline of mind, of training
the mind to hear and follow only the Voice for God. The goal is everlasting
peace of mind and the humor, gentleness, happiness, freedom, and joy
that flow from such a State of Mind.
The life of Mysticism is as spontaneous and playful
as it is serene and tranquil. Alive and energized by the living moment,
the need for rituals and rules and structures falls away from the mind.
Mysticism learns mastery through love and compassion and kindness; everyday
is like a painting full of opportunities to extend the Love of God.
Mysticism is not ruled by fear of consequences. The
Law of Love reigns supreme in the Divine Mind, and there is no other.
Love is without opposite, and this spiritual fact is finally approached
and accepted without exception or compromise. In the Awakening it becomes
clear that doubt is impossible.
Willingness to humbly accept oneself as a Child of God,
created perfect in the likeness of God, grows and grows with each Holy
Instant. The world of idols loses all of its former attraction as the
heavenly light enfolds the heart of the mystic. When such vastness and
magnitude become apparent, there is need of nothing else.
Meditation on the Divine is at first a practice, then
a continuous living experience, until it finally yields to an eternally
blissful and completely unalterable State of Being. Such is the State
of Grace.
To move in the direction of this State of Absolute Being,
the desires of the world of multiplicity must fall away.
Miracles lead the way, for the way of the true mystic
is approach to God through attraction, not through avoidance or opposition.
As error is seen as false and without a real cause, its foundation disappears
in the light of truth. Perfect love casts out fear, for belief has been
withdrawn and replaced by the Knowledge of Life in God. There is no
battle to be fought, only a gentle awakening to the truth of what always
was and always will be so.
All things are accepted exactly as they are, for that
which is eternal is unchanged, unchanging, and unchangable. It is understood
that no arrangement of circumstances (no sense of controlling persons,
events, and situations) and no amount of gain or personal improvement
is necessary to "attain" the peace and happiness that is available now.
Only a yielding to truth, a surrender of the belief in illusions, a
stepping back and putting full trust in God is required. This is no
sacrifice. Can the giving up of nothing for the remembrance of Everything
be a sacrifice? Joy has no cost, for Love is without an opposite.
Mysticism is finally yielding to Absolute Happiness
in God and Self. Only the Mind which knows "I and the Father are One"
knows Absolute Happiness.
Thank you God, for leading us all Home to You. Your
Way is certain, for your Plan cannot fail. Hallowed be your Name O God
of Eternity, and hallowed be the Name of your Beloved Child.
My heart is beating in the joy of God. My mind is resting
in the peace of God. My soul is invulnerable in the strength of God.
Mine eye is single in the light of God.
We are One. God is One. All is One. Amen.
